The Indian Railways’ new AC-III tier compartment that will roll out in middle of November this year, is said to be equipped with a slew of changes, including CCTV cameras in each aisle, and a tea, and coffee vending machine in each coach and a slew of other facilities.

The news about these new facilities was broken by the Indian Railways Twitter handle.

It also revealed that besides these new facilities, each compartment would also have a new improved “airline-like light bar” that would indicate the number of the seat along with indicating which is upper, lower and middle berths.

Further toilets in these coaches will have a special gel coating, which will make them “graffiti-proof”.

The Indian railways will now also provide curtains for side berths and aisles, which till now were only available in AC II Tire and AC I Coaches.

For now, these new AC III Tire coaches will only be deployed on the all Humsafar service, which is soon set to start operating between Delhi and Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh and has currently got four trains under its service.

These new coaches have been designed by the Rail Coach Factory in Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh, which is currently working a set of coaches for the fifth train which is set for production and would roll out later.

In this fifth train, besides the above, they have also removed the small gap that one has in the middle of the side lower berth.
